Step 2: Create a Clearpay source using DigitalRiver.js

Use the DigitalRiver.js library to create and mount elements to the HTML container.

The address object must contain postal code and state/province data that adheres to a standardized format.

var sourceData = {
    "type": "clearPay",
    "sessionId": "ea03bf6f-84ef-4993-b1e7-b7d5ecf71d1f",
    "owner":{
        "firstName":"John",
        "lastName":"Doe",
        "email":"jdoe@email.com",
        "phoneNumber":"077 1723 6984",
        "address": {
            "line1": "200 Broadway Ave",
            "city": "West Beach",
            "country": "AU",
            "state": "South Australia",
            "postalCode": "5024"
        },
    },
    "clearPay": {
        "returnUrl": "https://example1.com"
        "cancelUrl": "https://example2.com",
        "shipping": {
            "recipient": "John Doe",
            "phoneNumber": "077 1723 6984",
            "address": {
                "line1": "200 Broadway Ave",
                "city": "West Beach",
                "country": "AU",
                "state": "South Australia",
                "postalCode": "5024"
            },
            "email": "jdoe@email.com"
        }
    }
}
 
 
digitalriver.createSource(sourceData).then(function(result) {
    if(result.error) {
        //handle error message
        var errorMessage = result.error.errors[0].message;
    } else {
        //send the source to the back end for processing
        var source = result.source;
    }
});

        "lastName":"Doe",

            "city":"West Beach",
            "state":"South Australia",
            "country":"AU",
            "postalCode":"5024"
        }
    },
    "amount":"100.00",
    "currency":"AUD",
    "state":"pending_redirect",
    "creationIp":"209.87.180.27",
    "createdTime":"2022-03-29T20:09:25.752Z",
    "updatedTime":"2022-03-29T20:09:25.752Z",
    "flow":"redirect",
    "redirect":{
        "cancelUrl":"https://example1.com",
        "returnUrl":"https://example2.com",
        "offline":false
    },
    "language":"en",
    "clearPay": {
        "cancelUrl": "https://example1.com",
        "returnUrl": "https://example2.com",
        "accountToken": "33904584300000000000000600300905"
    }
}

Step 3: Authorize the Clearpay source

When you create a Clearpay source, the customer is required to authorize the charge through their payment provider. You can accomplish this by redirecting the customer to their payment provider.

Redirecting the customer for Clearpay authorization

Use the redirectUrl parameter in your createSource response to redirect your customer to the payment provider for authorization.

window.location.href = sourceResponse.redirect.redirectUrl;

The payment provider will present the customer with the transaction details and the customer can authorize, or cancel the transaction. A successful authorization redirects the customer to the V Return URL parameter you specified when you created the source.

Once authorized, the source state will change to chargeable.

    "channelId":"drdod15",
    "liveMode":false,
    "id":"cd53c5da-cc8a-4bbe-a51b-89fba9e82503",
    "sessionId":"f068e2aa-022a-4aa7-a098-deea82ead250",
    "clientSecret":"cd53c5da-cc8a-4bbe-a51b-89fba9e82503_9e6cbc1e-41bc-4018-8ed8-f35b39c0c0b6",
    "type":"clearPay",
    "reusable":false,
    "owner":{
        "firstName":"John",
        "lastName":"Doe",
        "customerId":"502283345689",
        "email":"jdoe@email.com",
        "phoneNumber":"077 1723 6984",
        "upstreamId":"123456789",
        "organization":"",
            "address": {
            "line1": "200 Broadway Ave",
            "city": "West Beach",
            "country": "AU",
            "state": "South Australia",
            "postalCode": "5024"
        },
    },
    "amount":"100.00",
    "currency":"AUD",
    "state":"chargeable",
    "creationIp":"209.87.180.27",
    "createdTime":"2022-03-29T20:09:25.752Z",
    "updatedTime":"2022-03-29T20:09:25.752Z",
    "flow":"redirect",
    "redirect":{
        "redirectUrl":"https://example3.com",
        "returnUrl":"https://example2.com",
        "offline":false
    },
    "language":"en",
    "clearPay":{
        "cancelUrl": "https://example1.com",
        "returnUrl": "https://example2.com",
    }
}

Step 4: Use the authorized source

Once authorized, you can use the source by attaching it to a checkout.

POST /checkouts/{id}
{
  "customerId": "5774321008",
  "sourceId": "src_a78cfeae-f7ae-4719-8e1c-d05ec04e4d37"
}
